I would like that much money to find out why every girl who goes goth seem to develop psychic powers, recall there past lives, contact nature spirits, realize they are bisexual, and start acting like they are all kitty cats.

The biggest danger of the Goth scene is becoming a total non-conformist.... who dresses, acts, and thinks exactly like all their little goth buddies.

no no lets look at the facts... if you really are from oklahoma and your mom wears all black she is either a bouncer at a bar, or bartender, or she is married to a biker, well ok thats just my mom

What has prompted other people on the site to get into the goth scene?



I used to be goth, but I'm all better now. I joined the goth scene for two very specific reasons. The girls are:

1) hot
2) easy

This whole this really amuses me. Goth has been around since the likes of Bauhaus got going in late 1970's - decades ago!!! All the original Goths are middle-aged now and mostly have got jobs and settled down to raise children etc but despite all of this, Goth is seen as this really subversive, scarey thing that has to be researched in case it corrupts the youth of today!!!

I'll tell you what corrupts the youth of today: Conservative politics!!

Personally, I think that we could do with more Goths (especially Goth women because they are sooooo hot).

Our tax dollars at work.

It makes me mad knowing that my state charges me 10% internet sales tax for this shit. They even tax the food I buy. Now that is what makes me want to wear all black and bite a pistol. mad

I admit to being a floppy old tard but here's what I've observed about Gith kids at the local malls.

They make eye contact and smile or nod. Hold the door or say thank you if I hold the door. Say excuse me if there's a bump. Dont try to initimidate other customers (although the black makeup made me nervous at first.) Clothes are clean and neat, it's obvious they make efforts to have a good outfit.

I've been dressing like this for years and wearing make up. Goth has been around forever. There actually is a HUGE demand for Alternative models. i.e. gothic girls.

Wow! Now we know why kids go Goth. Hence there is no need for any further federal studies. Please direct all future funds towards promoting Goth fashion. Thank you.

Well, I thought it was pretty apparent why they were a "danger". Lets look at the goth culture(Im speaking from the experiences Ive had with them in my old HS and from my frequent trips on greyhound). 1) It is rebellious 2) Many of the members are atheist, pagan, neopagan, or even *OMG* Satanist. 3) Many of them either do drugs or consume copous amounts of alcohol or both 4) Many of them are sexually promiscuious 5) Many of them listen to Manson and we all know about those other children who listened to Manson; We most certainly dont want that to happan again. In case none of you have guessed, I am being sarcastic. Although many of these attributes can undoubtly be attributed to the goth sub-culture and thier combined (moral) "danger" are undoubtly the reason for the study. With the exception of listening to Manson, these things can be applied to many teen sub-cultures and even a good part of mainstream teen culture. These valuse combined together form the exact values that no political administration, parent, or department of education higher-up would ever want in a child. And its always easiest to have a black(HAHA) sheep to place the blame on, rather than examine the underlying social structures that cause such discontent. and look for real solutions.

Wow, what a waste of money. I thought the Canadian government was good at wasting money. It's just a fashion. Just like punk, hip hop, hippies. And all these genres have kids who are bad. If these people choose to wear a uniform, good for them. I personally dont care, i just think they're good for a laugh every once in a while, like any other drone who decides to follow suit and join one of these clubs, be it punk, hiphop, or goth or whatever.. I don't think any one group is soley responsible for the evil in society. Nor do i think it's worth tax payers money to find out the obvious answer to such a stupid question. Boo to this big waste.

You could always try talking to your kids like human beings. You know, showing nonjudgemental concern and providing sincere advice to the best of your ability, keeping in mind that kids need to learn their own lessons and find themselves.



No one pays attention to their kids any more! Didn't you know? It's why video games have to have ratings and record labels have to release edited versions of every CD they print.

Maybe there wouldn't be so many "dangerous" Goth kids around if their parents had raised them instead of the television.

I noticed right before I left the kc area, that there were tons of goth kids. But that mainly had to do with Marilyn Manson. Ya know, the I want to scare my parents and piss off as many people as possible thing.

I could have taken their money and given them their reply.

stupid asses. It's stuff like that, that makes me extremely glad I left kc.

they should have used their money to find out why so many of those kids turn to drugs and alcohol.

You have to keep in mind the mentality of kansas city and all of its suburbs. I get pointed out and made fun of because of my pink hair. It really is a bit of a time warp.

Was this meant as an inflammatory topic, or did it really happen?
If so, then how about you throw out $273,000 to figure out why some dumbass wasted a quarter of a million dollars that could have went to something useful...like maybe new textbooks in schools?
Or do a study to figure out why the hell people shop at GAP, Abercrombie, etc. and drive big ass SUV's when they're only carting around one kid. 'Cuz I think that's a harmful lifestyle. Aren't stereotypes cool? whatever
